Any Democrat who voted "No" here has a pretty weak understanding of state politics.
Yes, of course. Charting the course for voter suppression (or lack thereof), other election policies that influence fairness of outcomes, what state laws to protect/not protect, and what federal laws to fight is much more important than the ability to veto bills that the legislature can override anyway.
Louisiana,Montana, and Kansas dont have veto proof legislatures.
And even if these governors didn't have the ability to veto legislation & budgets, I'd still take the power to appoint numerous statewide bureaucratic officials, issue executive orders, & take emergency actions over the lack thereof any day.
